🧵Thoughts of a minority Muslim:
As we process this new act of terrorism and #Islamophobia, we need to also assess the impact it can have on all #Muslim communities.There is an outcry because we all believe that everyone has the right to practice their beliefs without fear.1/5

A prominent feature of #JalsaCanada was the formation of the Special Education Needs & Disabilities (SEND) department. This included welcoming spaces, activities & viewing areas for members with disabilites with the goal of ensuring all members have a positive Jalsa experience.

[Jalsa Salana Canada 🇨🇦 @Jalsa_Canada]

Despite a grand #JalsaCanada reaching unprecedented growth, our hearts yearn to fill the void of the presence of our Beloved Imam Hazrat Khalifatul Masih V (aa).

This is good news from @HaltonDSB.

Students should be safe from all forms of discrimination, including anti-Palestinian racism and Islamophobia.

More needs to be done to equip educators with the tools they need to uphold human rights, equity, & protect student well-being.

For two decades, as His Holiness warned of the risks of a global war, his message was ignored and branded "pessimistic."

Today, as conflicts rage, and human suffering reaches extremes, some are still reluctant to hear the #VoicesforPeace #PeaceSymposiumUK

🧵 Schools are places where all students should feel safe to be who they are, to express their identities and cultures and feel welcome and appreciated. Sadly, this isn’t always the reality, despite the best efforts of dedicated educators and administrators.
